Would imagine your hooping for a write off , and then insurance pay for a new one , Thats how i would feel

[AGENT 47]

might be write off ouch :doh: hope you get it sorted

[Brimma]

That looks well and truly Rooney'd :'(

I felt bad enough when mine was broken into after 5 months, you must be absolutely gutted :S

[Big Jase]

looks twisted....

write off i'd say!

[andy68]

Not good, write off or fixing going to be along wait. If they fix it go over it with a fine tooth comb make sure they do a better than excellent repair.

Looks like it will be a write off sadly

[gallego1968]

Oh no, i am truely gutted for you. I recon it's a write off. :'( :'(

[PhilP1903]

My heart hopes it's a write off because after that much damage i could never regard it as a new car ever again. But my head says mend it otherwise its a 3/4 month wait for another one plus hassle for 3/4 months of fighting for alternate transport to be provided by offenders insurance etc etc etc. :'( :'( :'( :thumbdown:

[sworrall]

gutted :( Hope its written off so you get a new one.

Meh. It's only a car. Having been involved (& badly injured) in a couple of big accidents, I think any accident you walk away from is one to be thankful for.

Not implying/attempting to trivialise the incident in any way, it's bloody annoying but it could have been much worse.

[smog monster]

gutted for you mate , hope u get sorted soon :'(

Yes i know what you mean and i know you are not trivialising it, it could have been a lot worse, still gutted about the car tho. :'(

I was just so stunned, couldn't think of anything else to say, and anything else i could have said would not have changed things or helped the situation.

I feel for you mate......I would push the insurance company for a new one-that nearside rear door looks well and truly out of line. DON'T let the insurance company take it to one of their two bit 'approved' repairers-insist on a Skoda garage(they will assess the car using proper new Skoda parts, also, insist on a similar or better courtesy car-maybe something like a new Octavia or Superb)All this should push the price up to the point where the car becomes uneconomical to repair and will hopefully pay for a new one. The quicker they settle-the quicker you can order a new one-Good luck with it - glad to hear you weren't hurt though.
